I am a bit late in updating this post on the blog, though the video was already up on my YouTube yesterday.

This updates continues to be part of my railfanning session at NPMR - Narayan Pakuria Murail station near the PKU - panskura Junction railway station on the busy Howrah - Kharagpur railway line under the South Eastern Railway zone.

Gomoh WAG9-H locomotive (no. 31336) hauls a heavy freight train, through the busy Howrah - Kharagpur line of South Eastern Railway zone. WAG9 locomotives are the most powerful locomotives that is owned by Indian Railways. It was so nice to see this strongman of ECR hauling this heavy freight train.

This video (see the link I shared below) went on my YouTube yesterday, and it was also the 69th Republic Day, so one of my loyal followers on YouTube, Mr. Rabin Saha commented if it was a Republic Day special. Honestly I did not plan for a special Republic day special post but GMO - NSCB Gomoh railway station is so much associated with Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, one of the most celebrated Heroes of the Indian Freedom Movement. I think that way we can link this to this special day dedicated to the nation. BTW as all knows, Gomoh is now renamed as 'Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Gomoh' after this great person.

Watch the video of the WAG9H loco hauling the freight train in the link below:
